A multilayer structure has barrier properties for gases and vapors, for example oxygen and water vapor; the structure comprises: an organic substrate layer, and a multilayer permeation barrier thereon; the barrier comprises: a) a first inorganic coating contacting a surface of the substrate layer, and b) a first organic coating contacting a surface of the inorganic coating; the structure may be employed in a variety of articles where barrier properties are important especially in electronic articles such as organic light emitting diode devices where superior barrier characteristics over the life of the device are required.

A process for lubricating a container, such as a beverage container, or a conveyor for containers, by applying to the container or conveyor, a thin continuous, substantially non-dripping layer of a liquid lubricant. The process provides many advantages compared to the use of a conventional dilute aqueous lubricant.

The glass containers described herein are resistant to delamination, have improved strength, and increased damage resistance. In one embodiment, a glass container may include a body having an inner surface, an outer surface and a wall thickness extending between the outer surface and the inner surface. At least the inner surface of the body may have a delamination factor less than or equal to 10. The body may also have a compressively stressed layer extending from the outer surface of the body into the wall thickness. The compressively stressed layer may have a surface compressive stress greater than or equal to 150 MPa. A lubricous coating may be positioned around at least a portion of the outer surface of the body, such that the outer surface of the body with the lubricous coating has a coefficient of friction less than or equal to 0.7.

Low-friction coatings and glass articles with low-friction coatings are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a coated glass article may include a glass body comprising a first surface and a low-friction coating positioned on at least a portion of the first surface of the glass body. The low-friction coating may include a polymer chemical composition. The coated glass article may be thermally stable at a temperature of at least about 260° C. for 30 minutes. A light transmission through the coated glass article may be greater than or equal to about 55% of a light transmission through an uncoated glass article for wavelengths from about 400 nm to about 700 nm. The low-friction coating may have a mass loss of less than about 5% of its mass when heated from a temperature of 150° C. to 350° C. at a ramp rate of about 10° C./minute.

An insulating beverage container holder is disclosed that is adapted to receive either longneck beverage bottles or aluminum cans. The insulating beverage holder consists of a substantially cylindrical body having 3 axially aligned apertures therein. One aperture is sized for an interference fit with the cylindrical diameter of an aluminum can beverage container. A second aperture is sized for an interference fit with the neck portion of a longneck beverage container. A third aperture, situated between the first and second apertures, is sized for an interference fit with the larger diameter of a longneck beverage container. Retaining mechanisms are also disclosed that secure longneck beverage containers within the holder to prevent inadvertent removal of the beverage container from within the insulated beverage container holder.

A beverage container holder (2000) that can be attached to horizontal or vertical members, that can be compacted and that can accept cylindrical and frustoconical beverage containers and mugs. Preferably a strap (130) is wrapped in the middle of the beverage container holder (2000) when it is rolled up.

A package wrap for decoratively covering a container having side walls defining an interior space for carrying a product therein, includes a flexible thin sheet of polymeric material adapted to be shrink-wrapped onto the exterior of the container. An illuminating or a sound producing device is positioned between the flexible thin sheet of polymeric material and the exterior of the container so that when the flexible sheet of polymeric material is shrink-wrapped onto the container, the illuminating device or the sound device will be held securely in place. The illuminating device is adapted to be illuminated upon activation by a pressure, motion, or acoustically sensitive switch. The sound device is adapted to produce an audible signal upon activation by a pressure or motion sensitive switch. When the illuminating device is activated, illumination therefrom will be visible through the flexible thin sheet of polymeric material to enhance and highlight a printed pattern on the exterior of the package wrap.

The invention provides a container such as a bottle or flask, made heterogeneously from a material with a barrier effect and a polymer material, characterised in that the material with a barrier effect is an amorphous carbon material with a polymer tendency which is applied as a coating on a substrate of polymer material.

An extruded blow molded bottle comprises a neck portion and a body portion. The body portion comprises a first inner layer and a second layer. The first inner layer comprises a first material selected from a group consisting of polyester, phenoxy type thermoplastics, phenoxy-polyolefin thermoplastic blends, and combinations thereof. The second layer comprises a second material selected from a group consisting of virgin PET, recycled PET, PETG, foam, polypropylene, polyester, polyolefins, phenoxy type thermoplastic, phenoxy-polyolefin thermoplastic blends, regrind scrap materials, and combinations thereof. The second material is different from the first material.

In preferred embodiments methods and apparatuses can produce articles that have formable material. The articles may be mono and multilayer. The articles can be formed by various methods.

The container is a glass bottle (10) encased with a plastic coating (4) from its base section (3) to a sealing rim (2) around its mouth (M) in order to protect against shattering or explosive failure. The glass bottle, preferably a glass inlet, is fillable under pressure with a sprayable medically active substance and a propellant and provided with a delivery element attached to the sealing rim. To facilitate lower injection molding temperatures and pressures and to permit autoclaving at high temperatures the glass bottle with the plastic coating (4) is made by a method which includes injecting at least one reactively cross-linkable plastic capable of being heat-softened into a mold surrounding the glass bottle and forming the plastic coating (4) by a reaction injection molding (RIM) method.

A protective bottle enclosure for enclosing and sealing a bottle with an open mouth carried within the enclosure. The enclosure includes a container having an upper portion and a base removably coupled to the upper portion, and an external cap applicable to the container in a seated position of the cap. In the seated position of the cap, the cap seals the open mouth of the bottle carried in the enclosure and forms an impermeable inner seal between the cap and the bottle. A stopper carried by the cap forms the impermeable inner seal between the cap and the bottle, and in the seated position of the cap, the cap is fully seated against the upper portion of the container and forms an impermeable outer seal between the cap and the container.

The invention relates to safety containers for biologically active substances, in particular cytostatic agents, said container having increased or higher fracture strength and shatterproof qualities, in addition to an uncontaminated exterior. The invention also relates to a method for producing said containers and to the use of a medium containing at least one polymer for decontaminating the exterior of a container that is filled with a biologically active substance, sealed and optionally labelled.

A container body, comprising a single fiber structure molded into the container body having an integral bottom portion and an integral side portion; an open cavity defined by the bottom portion and the side portion; and the side portion being perpendicular to the bottom portion such that a rectangular label is mountable to the side portion without creases.

A holder for a beverage container wherein the insulating sleeve includes internal ribs proximate to the top and bottom for gripping the container. An inwardly extending flange at the bottom of the sleeve is provided with a plurality of suction cups for stable affixation to a support surface.
